Why are people trying to promote their products with this kind of LLM spam on Hacker News under LLM-related stories? Is it some kind of "it's all in the game" play? That slop will respect slop? The Snot Boogies of tech?

People use LLM generated promos because they can crank out copy fast and hope the algorithm will boost visibility, but on HN that just clutters the discussion. Real value comes from showing benchmark results, model architecture details and open source code, not fluff.
